Optimal DraftKings Fantasy Football Lineup: Wildcard Weekend

While the regular season is gone, DraftKings has still got your DFS needs covered with contests for the playoffs. The wildcard round contains some defensive battles, making picks a little tougher for DFS purposes, but you can always find some different lineups to work with.

 

Lineup 1:

Kirk Cousins: While Green Bay's defense has a respected reputation and is not often considered a must-target for quarterbacks, it's a defense that can get exposed versus good quarterbacks. Philip Rivers threw for 503 yards against them in Week 6, Peyton Manning eclipsed 325 passing yards, Cam Newton finished with nearly 300 passing yards and three touchdowns and Carson Palmer had a strong day as well.
